Chapter 6
Before setting off, Esdeath put on her military cap.
Esdeath's military cap is very similar to the British Royal Navy's military cap, which adds a touch of charm to her.
Bai Ye also thinks that this military cap is very suitable for Esdeath.
"We are currently in the border area in the south of the empire, which is far away from the imperial capital. If we rely solely on walking, it will waste too much time. Let's go to the nearest city of Gisai to get two horses."
Esdeath said.
Bai Ye nodded.
On the way to Gisai, Bai Ye and Esdeath encountered some dangerous species one after another.
In addition to the imperial capital and various cities in the empire, dangerous species may be encountered anywhere. The role of the city wall is not only to resist rebels, foreign enemies and foreign ethnic groups, but also to resist various dangerous species.
Bai Ye and Esdeath worked together to kill those dangerous species.
[Ding! The host hunted a "level 4 dangerous species" and received a reward: 1 system point! ]
[Ding! The host hunted a "Level 3 Dangerous Species" and received a reward: 3 system points! 】
Because Esdeath was too strong, Bai Ye only grabbed two dangerous species, and the rest were killed by Esdeath in seconds.
"I killed ten dangerous species, you killed two, I won."
Esdeath's high boots crushed the head of the last dangerous species. At this time, a tall city wall could be seen not far ahead, which should be Gisai City.
"Yes, yes, you are indeed very strong."
Bai Ye said undeniably.
But then again, he didn't say he wanted to compete with Esdeath...
Soon, the two came to the gate of Gisai City.
The guards at the gate wanted to check their identities.
Esdeath was a general who had just taken office not long ago. He was quite popular in the imperial capital, but he was not so famous in a remote place like Gisai City.
Moreover, in this world similar to the ancient feudal dynasty, information dissemination was also inconvenient.
At least you have to have seen Esdeath's portrait to recognize her.
"Hey! Where are you two from? What's your name?"
The city gate guard immediately questioned Bai Ye and Esdeath in a very impolite tone.
Before Bai Ye could speak, Esdeath immediately grabbed the guard's hair with one hand and pressed the guard to the ground with terrifying force.
Before the guard could react to what happened, his nose was directly broken by Esdeath's high boots.
"Gah ah ah——!"
The guard screamed immediately.
The other guards were stunned for a moment. They didn't expect that someone would dare to cause trouble here.
"Who is that woman? She looks beautiful and cruel, and she actually attacked the guards here."
"I want to say that she did a great job. Those guys always rely on others for power. Last time, someone was beaten half to death for just protesting, and was even thrown out to be fed to dangerous species..."
"I think it's a pity for such a beautiful woman. That scumbag governor will definitely not let her go, but we should keep our voices down. If we are heard, we will be finished."
"..."
When Esdeath suddenly took action, many people entering and leaving the city gate were attracted to her attention, and they couldn't help but talk about it.
At this time, Bai Ye found that he didn't seem to need to do anything, so he stood aside and watched the show calmly.
In a blink of an eye, Bai Ye and Esdeath were surrounded by all the city gate guards.
However, Bai Ye and Esdeath were calm and not panicked at all.
Esdeath was because of her absolute strength.
Bai Ye did it because of his strength and because he knew Esdeath's true identity.
"Don't you have anything to prove your general status?"
At this time, Bai Ye couldn't help but whisper to Esdeath.
"Yes, but I never bring that kind of thing when I go out to fight."
Esdeath said casually in a cold tone.
Bai Ye was a little speechless, "Then what should we do now?"
"If it doesn't work, just kill them all."
Esdeath said coldly.
A dangerous smile appeared on her beautiful face, which looked a little sick and hideous.
"..."
Bai Ye was speechless for a while.
This city of Gisai is located in the territory of the empire, and it should also be a city belonging to the empire.
These guards are at least Esdeath's own people, but they are so decisive to kill them all...
He didn't think it was bad to kill so decisively, but he was a little surprised that Esdeath could kill his own people immediately.
In this world where the strong prey on the weak, decisive killing is indeed necessary, but Esdeath's concept of "the survival of the fittest" is a bit too extreme.
"Wait! She...she seems to be EsdeathGeneral!"
Just when Esdeath drew the sword from her waist and prepared to kill, a guard finally recognized Esdeath.
He had seen Esdeath's portrait by chance. Esdeath's portrait had just been sent to Gisai City in the past two days. It was currently hanging in the governor's mansion and had not yet spread.
"General Esdeath? Is it true? The youngest general in the imperial capital? !"
"Absolutely true!"
"Then, then aren't we finished? How dare you draw your sword against the general..."
"Stop talking nonsense! Let's kowtow and beg for mercy. There is still a glimmer of hope! "
All the guards were frightened and knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
They were not only the beneficiaries of this corrupt empire, but also knew the horror of this empire. The fate of offending a general-level figure was very miserable.
However, Esdeath was still relatively lenient to her own people.
She ignored these guys and walked straight into Gisai City through the city gate without even looking at them.
Bai Ye walked with them.
After Esdeath and Bai Ye entered, the guards dared to stop kowtowing and raise their heads.
"Huh~ Fortunately, General Esdeath didn't bother with us."
"By the way, who is that young man? Is he General Esdeath's deputy general?"
"No, no, no, I think he is a male lover, and he is not wearing a regular military uniform."
"Don't worry about it. I almost died just now and I still have the mood to talk about this. Let's quickly notify the governor! "
"......"
After entering Gisai City, Esdeath went to the governor's mansion and asked for two good horses.
The governor had of course learned from the city gate guards that General Esdeath had arrived.
"General Esdeath is here, do you only need two horses? I have a lot of other good things here, if General Esdeath likes anything, you can take it at will."
The governor of Gisai City was a fat middle-aged man, and he was flattering when he saw Esdeath.
"No need."
Esdeath said coldly, and threw a bag of coins to the governor.
She never accepted bribes, and didn't want to owe favors to such people.
"Okay, okay. "
The governor did not dare to say anything more and immediately sent someone to bring two top-quality horses.
Bai Ye and Esdeath rode on their horses and continued on their way.
However, not long after they set off, on the streets of Gisai City,
they saw a yellow-haired young man in luxurious clothes blatantly assaulting a young woman and her young daughter, and a seriously injured and unconscious man lying next to them...
